Fantasy 5 is a Favorite in San Jose as the Fifth Big Winner of the Year Comes Forward!

Share:

SACRAMENTO – The luck in San Jose continues! Get this – our latest big winner, Sheila Sarsfield, is the fifth Fantasy 5 winner to purchase a top prize-winning ticket in San Jose in the last year! Sarsfield came into the Lottery’s East Bay District Office Friday and claimed her winning ticket from the May 20th, 2014 drawing – a ticket worth a cool $175,794.

The lucky ticket was purchased at the Bonfare Market located at 1090 Leigh Avenue in San Jose (Santa Clara County). The Bonfare Market is a winner as well, picking up a bonus of $878.98, or one half of one percent of the winning amount, just for selling the top prize-winning ticket.

The other Fantasy 5 winning tickets bought in San Jose worth more than $150,000 for the year were:

$184,215 on January 14th, 2014;$370,951 on November 24th, 2013; $289,471 on July 16th, 2013; and$317,665 on June 8th, 2013.

All this comes in addition to the massive $324 million Mega Millions® win back in December by Steve Tran, who purchased his winning ticket at a store in San Jose.

Fantasy 5 offers some of the best odds of any California Lottery game. A player wins the Fantasy 5 top prize simply by matching five numbers out of a field of 39. Winning numbers are drawn every day. The top prize starts at $50,000 and increases daily until it is hit. Tickets are $1 and can be purchased from any of the more than 21,000 California Lottery retailers.

And be sure to participate in the California Lottery’s Fantasy 5 – 2nd Chance promotion. For every purchase of $5 or more of Fantasy 5 on a single ticket you will automatically receive a Fantasy 5 – 2nd Chance code.
